Capacity-aware parallel-work guidance is also registered at UserPromptSubmit: it advises the coordinator to launch only real independent workers within sampled resource headroom and the live runtime/tool cap; it never spawns workers or claims execution. Automatic normalized project observations are captured at prompt, pre-tool, post-tool and child completion; Claude also observes PostToolUseFailure.
